EFT_FORM.pdf

This is an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Authorization Form issued by the Clay County Clerk of Court and Comptroller in Florida for processing vendor payments. The form authorizes Clay County's Comptroller Department and the vendor's financial institution to initiate electronic credits and debits for contract payments. Vendors must provide complete banking information including the financial institution name, account type, routing/ABA number, and account number. The authorization remains in effect until the vendor submits written cancellation to the Comptroller Department. Vendors are required to notify the Comptroller immediately if their bank account is closed or changed. Individuals may obtain necessary EFT information from their financial institution via direct deposit letters or voided checks, while businesses and vendors should contact their financial institution for complete ACH/EFT details.

This form is a standard administrative requirement for vendors contracting with Clay County and is directly related to the County's hurricane roof repair project at the Clay County Fairgrounds (IFB #25/26-055). Contractors awarded this federally-funded FEMA project will receive monthly payments based on work completed in accordance with the Florida Local Government Prompt Payment Act, necessitating submission of valid EFT authorization prior to contract execution. The form is a prerequisite for payment processing and does not affect bid submission requirements, bond obligations, insurance requirements, or other contractual terms associated with the roofing repair project.
